Forty-six species of the superfamily Plumularioidea (Hydrozoa, Cnidaria) and some material identified to the generic level, collected by the CANCAP and Mauritania-II expeditions of the Rijkmuseum van Natuurlijke Historie (now Nationaal Natuurhistorisch Museum) in the period 1976-1988, are described, as well as two other species that were used in the present study. In addition to the descriptions, synonymy, variability and geographical distribution are discussed; autoecological data and measurements are also presented. The new species described here are: Aglaophenia svobodai spec. nov., Streptocaulus caboverdensis spec. nov., S. chonae spec. nov., Antennella confusa spec. nov. and Nemertesia anonyma spec. nov. All species are figured. The general... |

Gattya wimleni spec. nov. is referred to the family Halopterididae (Hydroida, Thecatae). Colonies were collected at Tuléar (SW Madagascar, Indian Ocean) on the deeper part of the lower sloping platform, at 35 to 45 metres depth on the outer slope of the great barrier reef. The specimens were studied in transmitted light and by SEM. They differed from the eight species of Gattya already known in having a hydrothecal margin provided with four large rounded teeth of equal size - one abcauline, one adcauline and two lateral, curving inwards over the aperture, the laterals being hidden behind the lateral nematothecae in profile view. Its closest affinities are with the species G. multithecata (Jarvis, 1922) and G. aglaopheniaformis (Mulder & Trebilcock,... |
